4b²+20b+25=0
Divide everything by 4
b²+5b+ 6.25=0
use the quadratic formula
x= (-b+ or - √b²-4ac) /2a
x= (-5 + or - √5²-4*1*6.25) /2(1)
x= -5/2 so
in this case, b= -5/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x = 30
If there are 5 students in a row, find the number of rows given that the number of total students is 30.
Here 'x' represents the number of row
We need to write the following expression and solve for x:
9/18 = 100/x
So: 9x = 1800
x = 200
So it would take him 200 minutes to deliver 100 papers.
We do the same for 72 papers
9/18 = 72/x
so 9x = 1296
and x = 144
It would take him 144 minutes to deliver 72 papers.
Answer:
y = 4x-9
Step-by-step explanation:
16x-4y-36 = 0
-4y = -16x+36(subtract 16x from both sides and add 36)\
y = 4x-9(divide both sides by -4)
